Asmongold Issues Challenge to Elon Musk

Summary

• Asmongold challenged Elon Musk to prove his Path of Exile 2 level 97 achievement, offering a year of Twitter streaming in exchange for verifiable evidence.
• Musk's recent ban from Path of Exile 2 for "too many actions" fueled speculation about potential macro or bot use.
• Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.

Twitch streamer Asmongold issued a provocative challenge to Elon Musk, questioning the legitimacy of Musk's claimed level 97 achievement in Path of Exile 2. This high level, requiring significant time and skill, prompted skepticism regarding Musk's solo accomplishment.

Musk, a self-proclaimed gamer, recently experienced a ban from Path of Exile 2 due to rapid action sequences, leading to accusations of macro usage. While showcasing his gaming engagement, this incident further fueled doubts about the authenticity of his reported achievements.

Asmongold, a prominent and often controversial Twitch personality, directly challenged Musk's credibility. He offered to stream on Twitter for a full year—concurrently with his Twitch channel—if Musk could provide irrefutable proof of legitimately reaching level 97. Asmongold hinted that Musk's actions might stem from ego, suggesting honesty would garner more positive public perception than fabricated accomplishments.

Asmongold's Challenge: A Potential Boost for Twitter Streaming

Musk's response to Asmongold's challenge remains pending; however, accepting it presents a significant opportunity to expand Twitter's presence in the gaming streaming market. Asmongold's massive Twitch following (over 3 million subscribers) could significantly boost Twitter's viewership if he were to stream on the platform, potentially advancing Musk's streaming ambitions. This aligns with Musk's previously announced revenue-sharing model for Twitter creators, incorporating features like tipping and subscriptions.

It's noteworthy that this isn't Asmongold's first public interaction with Musk. In November 2024, Asmongold publicly supported Musk's lawsuit against companies allegedly boycotting Twitter.
